Reconstitute the lyophilized protein in sterile deionized water. The product concentration should not be less than 100 μg/ml. Before opening, centrifuge the tube to collect powder at the bottom. After adding the reconstitution buffer, avoid vortexing or pipetting for mixing.

Upon receiving, this product remains stable for up to 6 months at lower than -70°C. Upon reconstitution, the product should be stable for up to 1 week at 4°C or up to 3 months at -20°C. For long term storage it is recommended that a carrier protein (example 0.1% BSA) be added. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.

Flt3L, also known as Fms-related tyrosine kinase 3 ligand and SL cytokine, is a single-pass type I membrane protein. It is expressed by stromal cells and T cells. Flt3L signals through tyrosine kinase receptor Flt3/Flk2 to stimulate the proliferation of early hematopoietic progenitor cells. It synergizes with other growth factors, such as GM-CSF, IL-3 and CSF, to promote the differentiation of both myeloid and lymphoid cells. Alternative splicing and proteolytic cleavage of membrane-bound Flt3L generates a soluble extracellular domain (ECD) isoform with full biological activity.
